Chapter 68: Crazy Stone? Why is it a comedy?(1/2)
Assembling a crew is not that difficult.
Because "Crazy Stone" is a comedy film, it naturally has many more requirements than a youth romance film.
Similar to prop requirements, venues, etc., all need to be arranged in advance.
Regarding these issues, it is not difficult to contact Li Aimin and other friends when the time comes and ask them to help with preparations.
As for the venue, it is more troublesome.
After all, this is a youth romance film. You can just find a campus as a venue for formal filming.
If you want to capture the essence of "Crazy Stone", the location must be restored to a very high degree.
Old streets.
Strong market atmosphere.
There are even cable cars that span high in the sky.
If you want to solve this problem, you may have to arrange for someone to visit the location in advance to find a suitable shooting location.
Just for this point alone, I'm afraid it won't be completed even if we don't have a few months.
But in comparison.
Song Zimo, on the other hand, does not worry about these things, because these can all be solved with money and can be prepared by arranging for others to spend some time preparing.
However, actors are a thorny issue.
You know, this is not the past where you could just go to the film and television academy and recruit actors.
Every role needs to express the character of that character.
There will definitely be much higher requirements for their acting skills and image.
and.
The core roles here cannot be hired just by paying.
In fact, when Song Zimo was writing the script, he was already looking for actors to play these roles. Among them, the core roles of Brother Dao and Heipi were considered for a long time.
After all, it is a core role, how can you choose it at will?
Under this situation, Song Zimo had several alternative roles in his mind, but the problem was that they might not agree to play them.
This is what Song Zimo is worried about.
"As for funds..."
Thinking of this, Song Zimo's eyes couldn't help but pause. The next moment, a wave of irritability emerged in his heart, and he couldn't help but grab his hair with both hands.
Even though his works have done well at the box office, he can still make a lot of money.
Even if you put aside his debts, there is still a lot left.
But the problem is, the money has not yet arrived!
In fact, few people encounter this problem.
Why do you say that?
the reason is simple.
Like actors, most crews will take a long break after filming a work, which is enough time for the work to be released and the box office revenue to be transferred to the account.
But Song Zimo is different. He doesn't need to wait for his new script, he can just do it himself.
With such a fast-paced schedule, I'm afraid that the money may not be available until the crew is ready to start filming.
In a simple sentence.
That is, Song Zimo is also facing a shortage of funds at this moment.
Before, he had saved a lot of costs by relying on deception and being thick-skinned.
But in the final analysis, it was only through the individual money that we got our first pot of gold.
"Now what?"
"Is it possible to discuss with Shen Qingxue and get married again?"
When this bizarre idea appeared in his mind, Song Zimo quickly shook his head and threw it behind him, and couldn't help but think hard.
So poor!
Suddenly, Song Zimo's heart echoed the cry of many people.
But at this moment, he is not entangled in this. After all, he can't hold back the solution even if he is irritated here, and money will not appear out of thin air.
In this situation, we can only take one step at a time.
Simply, Song Zimo put this matter aside for the time being and prepared other things first.
···
Downstairs living room.
Song Zimo was about to go out and wanted to call Li Aimin and a few other friends to discuss the preparations for the crew.
I happened to meet Shen Qingxue, lying on the sofa in the living room.
She has not been idle these days, and her agent has also sent some new scripts to Shen Qingxue to choose from.
At this time, the sound of the door opening also attracted Shen Qingxue's attention.
next moment.
When she saw Song Zimo walking downstairs with a stack of documents in his hand, she suddenly remembered something and asked with interest, "Has the script been written?"
"Uh-huh."
"It's finished. This new work has a different style than before. Do you want to take a look?"
Song Zimo didn't hide anything, he just nodded and smiled.
Looking at Shen Qingxue in front of him, Song Zimo recalled the many difficulties he faced in preparing a new work, and couldn't help but feel bitter and helpless in his heart.
In fact.
It's not like he hasn't thought about asking Shen Qingxue to invest in him.
But the problem is, he had already cheated her out of hundreds of thousands of yuan when he shared the money, and he was just eating and drinking during this time, so he asked her for money again?
Although Song Zimo is thick-skinned, he still has the dignity of a man.
Does he look like the kind of person who eats soft food?
But at this moment, Shen Qingxue didn't know what Song Zimo was thinking.
Her attention is on the script.
Shen Qingxue didn't want to cooperate with Song Zimo, but just during this period of time together, her attitude towards Song Zimo also changed quietly.
Therefore, she is more curious.
I’m curious about the content of the new script written by Song Zimo himself.
But the next moment.
After taking the script, Shen Qingxue couldn't help but froze when she looked at the titles on the cover.
Crazy stone?
what's the situation?
Suddenly, the expectation in Shen Qingxue's eyes suddenly turned into confusion. After browsing again for a while, she also looked at Song Zimo with a puzzled expression and asked: "Comedy?"
"Do you know the risks of changing types?"
This point has been mentioned before.
As a young director without a stable base of popularity, it is undoubtedly a huge risk to suddenly change the style of his work.
Shen Qingxue is also a queen after all, and she knows the truth behind this.
"Let's try it."
"Besides, I think this work is pretty good."
At this moment, facing Shen Qingxue's surprise, Song Zimo was not too surprised, but he didn't know how to explain it.
After hearing this.
Shen Qingxue didn't know what to say.
Looking at Song Zi, Modu's eyes gradually calmed down and returned to his usual temperament.
After a while.
She frowned slightly and couldn't help but say: "I'm not trying to discourage you, but it's still necessary to remind you that changing types is very risky, and this style is rare."
Say it.
Shen Qingxue stopped persuading too much and turned her eyes away.
